Like Concrete There are Cracks

I don't know, just some stuff I was thinking about, not all necessarily true, but inspired by a true story, I guess.
Enjoy.

[Verse_1] Try not to be obsessed but I can’t help myself Don’t take pity on me But please don’t put me on a shelf

[Chorus] They say things about you, that I just can’t let go They say things that can’t be true but how would I know? I’d try to step up to the plate, but try as I might Your beauty will always strive to surpass my sight.

[Verse_2] Try not to be lonely but I can’t help but be Just leave me alone But please don’t stray too far from me Try to hear me speaking signaling with words you cannot hear me and that’s what really hurts

[Chorus]

[Bridge] Be still. Distantly. Instantly. Blissfully.[echoe behind] ‘Cause I would do a million things And try so hard to make you see My love for you is pure concrete But you will not remember me [Returning] DISTANTLY!!

[Chorus_Alt.] They say things about you, that just don’t seem fair. They say things that might be true, but why should I care? I’ve tried to accept my fate, but try as I might Your beauty will always be there, surpassing my sight.

[EXT.] Cry me a river I don’t give a damn Build me a bridge walk over your own traps Cry me a river I don’t know where you stand Build me that bridge, then fall through the cracks.
